Abstract

Recently the U-Healthcare system has been rapidly advanced to manage emergence rescue for seniors. We can access emergency rescue systems with high quality services anytime, anywhere under ubiquitous healthcare systems. The more the various systems develop, the more software security systems become important. Therefore, the safety-critical system has been widely spread to the world by advancement of the information and communication technologies. There are a lot kind of fault analysis methods to evaluate software security systems. However due to characteristics of software that is not applied by human error, it can be prevented the enormous damages and losses from improving the safety of safety-critical system. So this paper proposes an integration method of FTA and Forward and Backward FMECA. This method has each strength of FTA and FMECA which is visual and numeric in normalization. First, by use of FTA, we can redraw FTA with Forward FMECA and Backward FMECA in consideration of occurrence, severity, detection, correctness, robustness, and security. Also according to value of NRVP at each event, we can modify FTA diagrams as shown critical paths given by severity and occurrence. Also, we propose the improved emergency rescue service platform of ubiquitous healthcare systems through identifying priorities of the criticality according to normalized risk priority values (NRPV).

요즘 고령화가 급속히 진행되고 있고 이에 따라 시니어들의 응급구난 시스템에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 따라서 시니어들의 응급구난을 관리하는 U-Healthcare 시스템의 경우 시니어들의 안전과 직결되는 응급 처치 및 구난을 하는 시스템으로서 안전성이 매우 중요한 안전성 중심 시스템이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 시니어들의 생명과 밀접한 응급구난 관리를 위한 U-Healthcare 시스템에 대하여 결함분석과 안전성평가를 수행하여 그 효과를 알 수 있었다. 최근에는 안전성 중심 시스템은 인간 오류에 적용하기 힘든 소프트웨어의 특성 때문에 어느 하나의 시스템을 평가하기 위한 방법으로 상호보완적인 역할을 할 수 있는 두 가지 이상의 방법을 결합하는 연구가 진행되고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 결함 트리 분석(FTA)와 전후방 고장유형, 효과 및 치명도 분석(FMECA)의 통합에 의해서 결함 분석과 안전성평가를 수행하였다. 먼저 시스템의 기능별 결함 목록을 통하여 F-FMECA를 구하여 FTA를 구하였다. 그리고 FTA를 이용하여 B-FMECA에서 정규화 위험 우선순위 값인 NRPV를 구하였다. 정규화 위험 우선순위 값 NRPV에 따라 우선순위를 부여하여 FTA를 추가 수정하여 개선 전과 개선 후의 결과인 개선율을 통해 수치적으로 개선효과를 구할 수 있었다.
